Winner of the National Book Award for Fiction

Nominated for the National Book Critics Circle Award

An American Library Association Notable Book

Jonathan Franzen's third novel, The Corrections, is a great work of art and a grandly entertaining overture to our new century: a bold, comic, tragic, deeply moving family drama that stretches from the Midwest at mid-century to Wall Street and Eastern Europe in the age of greed and globalism. Franzen brings an old-time America of freight trains and civic duty, of Cub Scouts and Christmas cookies and sexual inhibitions, into brilliant collision with the modern absurdities of brain science, home surveillance, hands-off parenting, do-it-yourself mental healthcare, and the anti-gravity New Economy. With The Corrections, Franzen emerges as one of our premier interpreters of American society and the American soul.

Enid Lambert is terribly, terribly anxious. Although she would never admit it to her neighbors or her three grown children, her husband, Alfred, is losing his grip on reality. Maybe it's the medication that Alfred takes for his Parkinson's disease, or maybe it's his negative attitude, but he spends his days brooding in the basement and committing shadowy, unspeakable acts. More and more often, he doesn't seem to understand a word Enid says.

Trouble is also brewing in the lives of Enid's children. Her older son, Gary, a banker in Philadelphia, has turned cruel and materialistic and is trying to force his parents out of their old house and into a tiny apartment. The middle child, Chip, has suddenly and for no good reason quit his exciting job as a professor at D------ College and moved to New York City, where he seems to be pursuing a "transgressive" lifestyle and writing some sort of screenplay. Meanwhile the baby of the family, Denise, has escaped her disastrous marriage only to pour her youth and beauty down the drain of an affair with a married man--or so Gary hints.

Enid, who loves to have fun, can still look forward to a final family Christmas and to the ten-day Nordic Pleasurelines Luxury Fall Color Cruise that she and Alfred are about to embark on. But even these few remaining joys are threatened by her husband's growing confusion and unsteadiness. As Alfred enters his final decline, the Lamberts must face the failures, secrets, and long-buried hurts that haunt them as a family if they are to make the corrections that each desperately needs.

讀後感

評分

全书613页总共出现过“纠正”这个词七次(如果我没漏掉几个的话)。总体分析看来,这些“纠正”都是有意设置的。 【1】P51,第二行。“过了五星期,纠正了共计一万或五千个错误之后,在万圣节那个刮风的夜晚,他依然在批改论文。” 这里写的是奇普还是教授的时候,孜孜不倦地...

2014-11-05 发表于“腾讯·大家”专栏 终于用iPad上的kindle看完了《纠正》(当然是中文的,不过翻译得相当不自然)。 两儿一女的一对老夫妻,丈夫艾尔得了帕金森和阿兹海默病,妻子伊妮德既竭力照顾又心生怨气,对许多事(比如,丈夫的专利被别的公司以5000元买走,丈夫还要分...

乔纳森•弗兰岑说:“这本书忠实地记载了我这个人。” 2001年《纠正》出版之时,他的父亲已于1995年过世,母亲也在前几年过世,他十四年的婚姻也早已崩解。这时候,他自己,是他唯一的“家”。 他出生于1959年,工程师父亲,家庭主妇母亲。他是个老来子,家里还有两个大很多...

因为马上要毕业了,对于未来感到恐惧,所以喜欢看这种大家一起搞砸自己的人生的小说。 Chipper 出国的那段太迷幻了,读起来有点割裂和难受。 大哥的情节,一个拥有完美生活的中年男人慢慢疯掉,回到了父辈的阴影中。 正在读 Alfred 的这一段,像在解释说一切错误都发生于原生家...

在米國時與讀書俱樂部的朋友一起讀的,太長,沒啥印象。隻記得到瞭討論那天,大傢棄之不談,改談中國的女性地位瞭。

好讀說明寫作功力好 有爭議說明作者有立場 但沒有什麼新鮮內容也沒有太多深度 建議跳過直接讀WALLACE
